Debt Management and Recycling

Posted on 20 July, 2009 at 9:52 by Peter Kelly

You may not think that recycling can help with debt management, but it really can. By recycling not only are you doing your bit for the environment but you could also earn some extra money which you can use to pay off debt.

Here are some top tips to take control of debt management by recycling your unwanted goods, and please feel free to comment and add your own too.

1: Recycle Clothes – Do you fear a shoe avalanche every time you open your wardrobe or is it filled with clothes that you would never dream of wearing again? If so, recycling your clothes is a great way to make money. There are a number of websites which allow you to sell your clothes online and most are free to join. It is likely that you will have to pay a small percentage for each item you sell but you can use the rest to pay down your debts.

2: Recycle your old mobile phone – These days technology is moving so fast that you are likely to have an unwanted mobile hiding away in one of your drawers. You can make money by recycling your mobile and there are a number of different websites to choose from. Make sure you do your research and go for the one which will give you the most for your phone.

3: Recycle your read books - Try Greenmetropolis.com for selling your unwanted books. You make £3 for every book sold and it is really simple to use; all you have to do is enter the condition of the book and the ISBN number (usually found on the back of the book near the bar code) and your site will up up online and ready for sale.
